REPERTOIREMAP(5) Linux User Manual REPERTOIREMAP(5) NAME
repertoiremap - map symbolic character names to Unicode code points DESCRIPTION
A repertoire map defines mappings between symbolic character names and Unicode code points when compiling a locale with localedef(1). Using a repertoire map is optional, it is needed only when symbolic names are used instead of now preferred Unicode code points. Syntax The repertoiremap file starts with a header that may consist of the following keywords: <comment_char> is followed by a character that will be used as the comment character for the rest of the file. It defaults to the number sign (#). <escape_char> is followed by a character that should be used as the escape character for the rest of the file to mark characters that should be interpreted in a special way. It defaults to the backslash (). The mapping section starts with the keyword CHARIDS in the first column. The mapping lines have the following form: <symbolic-name> <code-point> <comment> This defines exactly one mapping, <comment> being optional. The mapping section ends with the string END CHARIDS.
